  • In this study, the finite element modeling for the signal cable and pneumatic hose of the industrial robot is developed. The modulus of elasticity of signal cable and pneumatic hose is predicted by deflection test. Finite element model for the signal cable and pneumatic hose is developed by using the modulus of elasticity obtained from the tests. The developed finite element model is estimated through the vibration analysis. This study shows that the developed finite element model can be effectively utilized in the dynamic analysis.

  • This paper deals with a hybrid finite element method for wave scattering problems in infinite domains. Scattering of waves involving complex geometries, in conjunction with infinite domains is modeled by introducing a mathematical boundary within which a finite element representation is employed. On the mathematical boundary, the finite element representation is matched with a known analytical solution in the infinite domain in terms of fields and their derivatives. The derivative continuity is implemented by using a slope constraint. Drilling degrees of freedom at each node of the finite element model are introduced to make the numerical model more sensitive to the transverse component of the elastodynamic field. To verify the effects of drilling degrees freedom and slope constraints individually, reflection of normally incident P and SV waves on a traction free half spaces is considered. For the P-wave incidence, the results indicate that the use of slope constraint is more effective because it suppresses artificial reflection at the mathematical boundary. For the SV-wave case, the use of drilling degrees freedom is more effective by reducing numerical error at irregular frequencies.

  • A method of stochastic finite element analysis is developed for yield a uncertainty of engineering problems. Where, a stochastic finite-element method for shapes modeling is proposed a6 a means to solve the models with the uncertainty and variety. This method is based on the probability and illustrated by a first-Order Second-Moment Method and considering the covariance of random variables. The validity and accuracy of the stochastic finite element method is verified through comparing with those solved by the conventional 2-D finite element method.

  • In this study, the volumetric heat source in electron beam welding (EBW) is modeled through finite element method taking advantage of ABAQUS software package. Since this welding method is being applied in plates with different thicknesses and also considering that residual stresses reduce the strength of these weldments, the effect of thickness in the distribution and magnitude of residual stresses after welding is studied. Regarding the vast application of Inconel 706 super-alloy in aerospace industries, this material was selected in the current research. In order to validate the finite element model, the obtained results were compared to those of other researchers in this area, and good agreement was observed. The simulation results revealed that increase in the plate thickness leads to increase in the residual stresses. In addition heat treatment in the base metal (before welding) increases the residual stresses significantly.

  • Superplastic forming of thin sheet into complex shape is an important manufacturing process especially in aerospace industry. The main interest in modeling the superplastic forming process is to predict the forming pressure cycle to maintain optimum strain rate and the resulting thickness distribution. Many researchers have attemped to model superplastic forming using the various techniques including finite element method. But in most of their researches have disregarded the strain hardening effect which which occurs in several superplastic materials. In this study ABAQUS finite element code was used for prediction of process variables for axisymmetric cup forming of Supral 100 and 7075Al alloys considereing strain hardening. The performance of numerical results were compared with the experimental results.

  • In this paper, modeling of the multi-pass roll forming process with the finite element method and defect prediction in roll forming process are presented. In the roll forming process, there occurs the defect of scratch. It appears on tubes because of the friction between the strip and the roll, the unexpected sliding velocity and the contact pressure when fabricating the tubes. The surface of the product will be not uniform due to the defect. The scratch can be predicted with the simulation modeling of the finite element method, and can be avoided by modifying the design.

  • The current research presents a detailed methodology for generating air blast loading for use within a finite element context. Parameters describing blast overpressure loading on a structure are drawn from open literature sources and incorporated within a blast load generation computer code developed for this research. This open literature approach lends transparency to the details of the blast load modeling, as compared with many commonly used approaches to blast load generation, for which the details are not publicly available. As a demonstration, the load generation code is used with the finite element software LS-DYNA to simulate the response of a steel plate and girder subjected to explosions modeled using these parameters as well as blast parameters from other sources.
